John Petrucci "First day in the studio"

nolow · 01-03-2011, 08:19 AM

JP tweeted this about 5 minutes ago "First day in the studio and the dawn of a new era for DT. Can't wait to get the music flowing."

I'm presuming they took a drummer with them...

JohnIce · 01-03-2011, 08:51 AM

I saw on Fractal Audio's FB page that they were "looking forward to spending tomorrow with John Petrucci"... maybe that means he's bringing the company in to help him dial in som nice Axe-Fx tones?

Kurkkuviipale · 01-03-2011, 08:55 AM

I bet John has some kind of a deal with Mesa Boogie so he's at least using their preamps.

Granted, but still there must be a reason for him bringing in Fractal on the second day of recording... maybe he wants to backhand-slap Cliff after not liking the "Petrucci rhythm" preset

My guess would be that he's using the Axe-Fx for, you know, Fx.

IDD, or maybe for something like compressors, dist pedals (, though they might be considered as FX too...)

Overtone · 01-03-2011, 10:07 AM

He's learning how to use the new drum machine

scherzo1928 · 01-03-2011, 10:49 AM

He should just ask Marco Sfogli for his rythm patch. But yeah, this time I'm actually looking forward to the album unlike the last one.

...ah .... it's such a bad joke I can't bring myself to finishing it.

You mean you can use it for effects? What a quaint idea.

First thing i thought of after seeing that pic.

hutchman · 01-03-2011, 11:34 PM

I can't see Petrucci going full digital with Axe FX. Pretty sure he will stick with Mesa and use Axe Fx for effects. However who knows, he might make decision and swap completely to Axe Fx. But I can't see it happening any time soon.

Metalus · 01-03-2011, 11:37 PM

Super stoked for the new album. I was hoping Bobby Jarzombek would get the spot but all arrows are pointing to Minneman.

Antimatter · 01-03-2011, 11:41 PM

Heck yeah, I can't wait for this. MP was no doubt a big part of how Dream Theater sounded and worked so I'm very excited to see how they will sound with someone else in that spot.

Whoa, I didn't know he was being considered. That would be pretty amazing...

DLG · 01-05-2011, 03:59 AM

Pretty sure Bobby turned down the invitation to audition.

Oh man I hope you're right. I'm a huge Marco fan as well as a huge DT fan, to see them together would make my day.

It could happen. Those Mesa models in the Axe Fx are absolutely dead on. He could use a Mesa 2:90 and his Mesa cabs for a more simple rig. That said, nothing about any incarnation of his live setup points to simple

WickedSymphony · 01-05-2011, 10:34 AM

I don't see him going full digital especially considering he just made new videos for mesa boogie that just got put up in the past few weeks.

But pertaining to JP's tweet...that guy is a ....ing cock tease. Seriously.

JohnIce · 01-05-2011, 11:06 AM

Remember that his live rig doesn't have to be the same as his studio rig... it's not at all impossible that he'd use some amp modelling on the record but not live. With that said though, he's always used quite few amp tones throughout his career,
